No doubt you've seen these, but in case you've landed upon the page and are not a Facebook guru, here's a link to the official Love Never Dies Australia page with production photos. You can also see them on the official website at Love Never Dies Australia. All I can say is that love it or hate it, you've got to agree the costumes are breathtaking, as well as the sets.
Of course, the naysayers are out posting all the negative remarks they can glean from every possible review. I've posted a variety of good and bad for your reading enjoyment above.
I've also been slapped on the hand by the authorities for offering any reviews from Ticketmaster. I'm apparently ignorant that the favorable Ticketmaster comments are only posted to increase sales and those people are really not a true representation of the audience, as they are "biased" in nature. Ticketmaster guidelines state, " We reserve the right not to post your review if it contains any of the following types of content or violates other guidelines: (a) obscenities, discriminatory language, or other language not suitable for a public forum; (b) Critical or spiteful comments on other reviews posted on the page or their authors."
I think anyone can write an honest review, respectfully, and still have it posted. Checking the reviews on Love Never Dies in United Kingdom there are a plenty of one star reviews posted up to five star reviews. In fact, the first six pages are one star reviews, but overall out of 543 comments, it has an over rating of 4.3. So frankly, that's a bunch of propaganda that bad reviews are never posted on Ticketmaster.
Anyway, I see posted comments on Facebook pages and elsewhere on the web from theater goers who saw and liked the production. Maybe they're just saying that so they can sell tickets under the table and make a few bucks too. There are evil intents lurking everywhere.

In any event, the show is here. The war of words continue, even against me apparently on Twitter yesterday for having a voice. Once again I write useless Phan fiction and don't know what I'm talking about. I've done great harm to the Phantom community for seeing the show and supporting Andrew Lloyd Webber's right to a sequel. I should be silenced, shamed, and spoken ill of so that Love Never Dies can be dragged down to perdition where it belongs and all those who like the damnable piece of theater that ruins the original.
Should I shut up about it? Should I crawl in a hole and not have an opinion? Do I continue to voice my support while I suffer the slings and arrows from the other side? :inserts evil laugh:
Have a great day. Enjoy the pictures. If you like them and the Australian production, make sure to keep your hand at the level of your eyes, because you're going to get strung up if you don't. It's the way in the Phantom community.
I'm in a mood...
